Upgraded old 1970's steel framed 6 speed Carlton roadbike for use offroad and for bad weather. Part of economical complete drivetrain replacement with Alvio RDM410, cassette, chain, cheapest compact chainset, bottom bracket, gear cables and front derailler all from SJS. Horizontal dropout also required Shimano hanger bracket also from SJS. Together with new wheels and CX tyres the old bike has a new lease of life. Everything works great, the price was very good. Using an MTB mechanism allows me to use larger sprockets in low gears which is great for climbing hills in muddy conditions.
